06' GTO LS2 or 10' Camaro LS3?

What would you do?

Looking at getting a complete take out, with tranny's.

2006 GTO LS2 with 4L60E 32,XXX miles

or

2010 Camaro LS3 with 6l60E, 41,XXX miles

Both motors are stock, no mods, all have accessories and computers.

Is one better than another?

It seems to me that it would only cost me about 1,000 bucks more to go the LS3 route. Just wanted to ask the board what woudl you do, I was always leaning the LS3 direction because its newer technology.

I've seen this printed probably 20 times, but I can't find proof that a 6l60e is a real transmission.

Word I know the 6l80e and your build, but it made me do a googling...I didn't want to tell someone their transmission wasn't real until I could prove myself wrong.

Apparently a ton of people on the internet have fat fingers, you weren't the only one whos posted about a "6l60e" lol.
